They have no interest in the truth, Only narrative matters. And Lankford is 100% right. They DO NOT want to solve immigration.
The number is there, but it doesn't mean what you have been told it means. It would not have let 5000 into the US, - it would have let 5000 into detention facilities, where they'd have 90 days to revolve their asylum application, or be sent back.
Me>> No justification simple supply side economics. Prove revenues dropped as a result and the higher earners paid less a share of taxes. We already KNOW the even DEEPER deficits and debt Biden and the Dems are causing. What simplistic reasoning. On top of the fact it was a complete dodge because you can't support your claims.
It would have comprehensively opened to borders and moved to quickly get in as many as possible and living off the US taxpayer. Oklahoma GOP votes to condemn Sen. Lankford for role in bipartisan border talks The Oklahoma Republican Party approved a resolution over the weekend condemning and censuring Sen. James Lankford, the state’s senior senator, for his role in the ongoing bipartisan border negotiations in Congress. Oklahoma Republicans accuse Lankford of “playing fast and loose” with Democrats on border policy and that he puts “the safety and security of Americans in great danger,” according to a copy of the resolution posted to X by Republican state Sen. Dusty Deevers. The state party called on Lankford to “cease and desist jeopardizing the security and liberty of the people of Oklahoma” and said it will withhold support for Lankford until he ends the negotiations.... https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/29/poli...sures-lankford-border-negotiations/index.html
What detention centers we have no detention centers in which to hold them and the goal is to get them all IN not deported. What about the MILLIONS already awaiting their hearings who we are already feeding and clothing and housing and giving them everything else, do these new 5000 a day get their hearings before them? We need to STOP the border crossings, we need to CUT the number of legals we are allowing in and concentrate on processing those already in the country and deporting the 90%+ who have not claim of asylum. That was NOT in the "comprehensive" bill.
The border patrol union has endorsed this bill. Its members lobbied elected Republicans to adopt it. Are you going to pretend they don't know what they're doing?
Trying to work across the aisle won't go unpunished. He almost managed to solve the problem, and that's the last thing they want. They flat out admitted it. Can you quote that part of the bill? Vast majority of asylum applications are denied, and the bill would have expedited the process, meaning they would have been denied sooner Then they should have supported the bill. The votes have consequences, be their for or against
The lockdowns happened under Trump’s watch, thus, his lockdowns. Inflation occurred under Biden’s watch, thus, his inflation. Are the above-mentioned partisan blaming rules FAIR? If so, then let’s debate other negativities that occurred under Trump’s watch, and Biden’s watch, and NO “YEAH, BUT”. HOWEVER, I prefer a rational response.
I'm so glad that I was in Texas at the time. Governor Abbott outlawed all the China Virus Tyranny (closing businesses and school, separation, and all the other oppression).
How'd that work out? Texas numbers ---- https://apps.texastribune.org/features/2020/texas-coronavirus-cases-map/ There have been 6.2 million confirmed cases .... As of Aug. 23 (2020), 88,373 people who tested positive for the virus have died in Texas. DSHS counts deaths based on death certificates that list COVID-19 as the cause of death, which excludes deaths of people with COVID-19 who died of another cause. Also you'll notice that Texas was very lax in reporting cause of death as COVID. The disease often led to deaths by other causes, and Texas made it a point to list the other as the cause of death. You'll see a number of paragraphs in the link above where Counties changed tlarge numbers of cause of deaths from COVID to other causes.
Blue states often listed the China Viraus as the cause of death for everyone that died who had it... even if they were hit by a truck.
Why would you say that and not bother to check? https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.go...bers-coronavirus-task-force-press-briefing-4/ https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/articles/15-days-slow-spread/
